Daredevil Posted May 10, 2017 Share Posted May 10, 2017 I actually really like the navy and white Rams logo. I hope the Rams don't change it too drastically. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VikWings Posted May 10, 2017 Share Posted May 10, 2017 Yea. The Rams shouldn't touch the logo other than maybe update the colors (again) in 2019. It's a great logo. I'm still convinced we'll get a nike-fied modern update of the throwbacks in either navy or royal and yellow as the primaries with blue and white as the alternates. Now whether that alternate is blue or white remains to be seen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would be great, except that they decided to add a pointless extra blue outline around it. Extra outlines muddy in general, and exponentially more so in two-color logos. If the white horn is an issue, close up the regular blue keyline. Ugly and unnecessary. Spoils an otherwise-fine logo. The Green Bay Packers Uniform Database! Now in a handy blog.

When you compare the St. Louis Rams and LA Rams logo (even though they are basically the same), the extra outline adds a lot of motion to it. Just for fun...

In the white/blue only representation, the former gold/now white key line gets lost in the white background, thus calling for the extra outline.. That's why the logo is better as a three-color logo than a two-color logo Here's how it looks without the extra outline: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gothamite Posted May 10, 2017 Share Posted May 10, 2017 Easy enough to fix - fill in the horn, and it's fine in two colors without the outline.

Their throwbacks are beautiful and should be the basis for their new uniforms. But the helmet and jersey are completely different colors. I love the royal jersey but the helmet would look so cheap if it was also royal. I was surprised how much I liked their Color Rush set. Not necessarily the all yellow, but the yellow and navy meshed well and actually matched the helmet. While the blue was different, the shade of yellow still made it feel familiar to me (like the throwbacks). I think this would be a good place to start. It's a blending of eras but I think it works well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gothamite Posted May 10, 2017 Share Posted May 10, 2017 I think the navy is too depressing. The Giants used to have the same bright jersey/dark helmet problem, but have fixed it with a modern finish. No reason the Rams can't do the same, and match the helmets to their royal blue. The Green Bay Packers Uniform Database! Now in a handy blog.

I think a finish similar to the Giants' helmets would work just fine, but I actually think satin might be the way to go since it's not quite as shiny. If the Rams darkened their shade of royal just a touch (similar to the Giants' blue, or perhaps even a bit darker), I think a satin finish could provide a nice balance between being dark and flat enough to let the horns properly stand out, while also being a closer match to the rest of the uniform elements.

Gothamite Posted May 10, 2017 Share Posted May 10, 2017 That could work, too. Either way, there's no reason they can't have royal blue jerseys and helmets that match. The Green Bay Packers Uniform Database! Now in a handy blog. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quillz Posted May 10, 2017 Share Posted May 10, 2017 I do like the Rams primary logo and do hope it sticks around, but somehow, I just can't imagine it will. It's from the St. Louis era and like I said earlier, it seems the Rams are doing everything possible to forget that era ever happened. So while I do hope the logo stays around (and recolored), I'm not expecting it. What I would like to see is a modernization of the only other ram head logo, and one that is actually from the LA era: Obviously this would need some heavy modernization, but I think it could be done. It would accomplish the same goal of having a primary ram head logo, and would harken back to the LA past. This logo is also on the official New Era alternate caps, which to me implies the team might intend to do a modern take on it one way or the other.

Any modernisation of this would just be an inferior version of the current logo, which already uses the same concept.
